Gibson is the award-winning science fiction author of the cyberpunk cult classic Neuromancer and according to Dark Horse, "You'll see familiar characters and places--but not all is the same in this horrifying Cold War thriller!" (whatever that means, I'm intrigued).

Synopsis:After the deadly events of the film Aliens, the spaceship Sulaco carrying the sleeping bodies of Ripley, Hicks, Newt, and Bishop is intercepted by the Union of Progressive Peoples.

What the UPP forces don't expect is another deadly passenger that is about to unleash chaos between two governmental titans intent on developing the ultimate Cold War weapon of mass destruction.
